An Allentown man is accused of stealing a dump truck and, after he was arrested, flinging feces-covered pants at an officer.

Allentown Police said the dump truck was reported stolen from a construction site in Luzerne County on Monday night and on Tuesday officers found Joseph Wolf standing next to the disabled truck on South Fourth Street in the city.

In an interview with police Wolf told officers he stole the truck and drove it to Allentown, where he ran out of gas, according to court records.

Wolf said he then walked to a nearby liquor store and proceeded to drink outside, records say.

The 57-year-old Wolf was less cooperative once he was put in a holding cell, police said.

Wolf stuffed his gym pants in the cell toilet, police said, and then tossed the feces-covered pants at a police officer. Wolf was moved to the neighboring cell, which he also flooded, records say.

Wolf was charged with aggravated harassment by a prisoner and two counts of institutional vandalism.

In the dump truck case, Wolf is charged with theft, receiving stolen property, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and two summary traffic violations.

In the holding cell incident, Wolf is charged with aggravated harassment by a prisoner and two counts of institutional vandalism.

Wolf, of the 600 block of North Fair Street, was arraigned before District Judge Michael Faulkner and sent to Lehigh County Prison in lieu of $70,000 bail.
